SCF - MON-03 - Content of Event Logs
Mechanisms exist to configure systems to produce event logs that contain sufficient information to, at a minimum:
- Establish what type of event occurred;
- When (date and time) the event occurred;
- Where the event occurred;
- The source of the event;
- The outcome (success or failure) of the event; and
- The identity of any user/subject associated with the event.
